From me, nothing yet, I could not even start working on it after tweaking the code ...

Yeah, it is a bit daunting when you inspect the code. I've asked Dako to give a status update or something like it, but that hasn't happened yet.

I actually think I'll try a complete rewrite, since I have some spare time coming up.Most important features as I see it:- Overview of scores per map- Indication of how close people are to specific medal(s).

What I want to change/remove:- No popup any more, but an overlay or something like it (Probably the most controversial, some people won't like this).- No graphs (at least at first)- No ratings / display icons options- Chrome support- No fetching data twice when still on the same page.- Easier data model, essentially what you get back from the API (and filling other structures with it as needed).

I know nothing about code, so I will be of no help on this. I just wanted to drop by and mention my support for updating Map Rank.

I have a wishlist and just want to get my voice out there. I'm sure many people have mentioned these same things, but here is what I would love to see Map Rank do.

1. Be able to Map Rank by Game Type (i.e. doubles, trips, assassin, etc.)2. Be able to calculate Random medal numbers3. Not close just because you navigate away from the page on which you opened Map Rank

Glad to hear that someone is at least working on it though. Good luck to all those that are undertaking this task.

Regarding your wishlist:

I thought Map Rank by Game Type was available by going through the Game Finder page, but a quick test on myself shows it only restricting the statistics based on the map, and possibly the players. Did this work before and get broken somehow?

Calculations for Random medals were key to this competition. I wish I had had more time to crack this.

I'm fine with the third option not being available. If you have the ability and now how to want to navigate away while you have the Map Rank pop up open, then you should be able to open a new tab. Not very difficult. Work on Map Rank should be saved for things that are more important.

Since the contents of the Map Rank are on the fly, there is no way to have it in a new tab, the only possible options are still a such pop up or an overlay in current tab (something like when you click on a map's image), anything else would need a server side content provider and can't be done on the fly ...

I wasn't advocating putting it in a new tab. I'm advocating keeping it the same in that regards.

This is great news, thanks Thrush. I have a question though--why am I able to download this script for chrome but it doesn't actually work? I mean, I get the box in the sidebar and everything but if you try to maprank someone you just get an empty field pop-up.

Would be nice if it simply displayed "Random" as the Suggested map for the Random medal rather than listing sooooo many maps - can't tell if it is all of them or only ones I've played before, but it makes the page explode. Otherwise, great addition!

I second this. There doesn't need to be anything other than Random listed for the suggested maps, IMO.

+1, I eventually just downloaded it on Firefox.

no answer at all eh?
